As cofounder and leader of the seminal progressive bluegrass band New Grass Revival through 18 years during the 1970s and ’80s, Bush may not be the only person responsible for newgrass, the wild bluegrass stepchild that features rock ‘n’ roll grooves and extended virtuosic jams, but since New Grass Revival’s dissolution in 1989, Bush has certainly been one of the most brilliant of newgrass’s many bright lights. He helped create newgrass music almost 35 years ago, but Laps in Seven is evidence that he’s still as vital a presence on the acoustic music scene as ever: still making new sounds, still rockin’ out on great songs, and still pushing the bar higher for the legions of his protégés, fans and friends.

Easy Star evolved from an idea hatched by four friends into a vibrant independent record company that has been called “…one of the most important reggae labels in America today.” [Full Watts, 9/98] Easy Star has helped to foster this renewed interest in Jamaican music, and can now be rightfully considered one of the leaders in the modern reggae industry.\nIn February 2003 Easy Star released the now classic Dub Side of the Moon project, which is a song-by-song reggae recreation of the classic Pink Floyd album Dark Side of the Moon. The album has sold over 100,000 copies and spent over 200 weeks on the Billboard charts. The live version of the album has been selling out shows all over the US, Europe, South America, the Middle East and beyond since 2004.

Originally created as just a funk band as inspired by the local New Orleans scene in the mid 90’s, over the years they have adapted and created a style envied by most. Maybe you could say they’re modernizing the sound of funk by creating a new sound by fusing many genres together with incredible success, or maybe you could say they are out to create a new genre.

Beginning with music in the mid 90’s, Mos Def found himself to be one of the primary hip-hop artists leading a charge from back alley rhymes to featured spots on radio and MTV. Within a short time frame he had already begun to work with such artists as De La Soul and Talib Kweli and became a mainstream sensation almost overnight.
